A Little Dinner aud a Dinner Party.

Thackeray, in 'Mr. Browns Letters to
His Nephew" lays down the law that
mutton is as good as venison-beef-
steak. t. You are hungry, as good as
turf 'e-bottled ale, il you like it, to the
full ;,e good US champagne; there is no
delicac;- In the world which III. Franco
tell or NJ. Soyer can produce which 1
believe to be better than toasted cheese.
g have seen Il dozen of epicureS at g.
grand table forsake every French and
Itai II tteiicacv for boiled leg OF pork
and pease pudding. You can but be
hungry, and eat and be happy"
All o: which IS very well, but if you
were to ask a dozen epicures to dinner
and give them nothing but leg OF pork
and pease pudding or If youwere to set
doal e party of people to whom you
wished to show some If the civilities
which custom and society demand. and

may be permissible to think, not be I'M
rclsonabic i'll your guests if they were
not aito, eth. satisfied with the enter
tainmcut pro ided tor them.
81 tn Thackeray and other writer's who
have expressed the same opinion, were
obviously confusing two branches Of
their ubject, and were not sufficiently
mindful OF the fact that " a little din
ner" which they had in their minds, and
dinner party, against which they
were inyeig hing, are two entirely sep
crate and distinct Institutions, which
are subject to entirely opposite condi-
tons and between which there is no
sort Of analogy.

Value of Tougbened Timber.

By the new process of toughening tim
Der, it is claimei that the effect pro-
duced upon white wood, is such that a
cold chisel is required In order to split
1t.
This result is accomplished by q
special method of steaming the timber
and submitting it to end pressure, techni-
cally "upse;ting 1t. -
BY this means the cells and fbres are
compre ssed into one compact mass !;
and is the opi~ion of those who have
experimental with the process that
wood can be compressed to the extent of
some scvc2tyT-five per cent. and that
so-a. of the timber now considered unfit
for use in such work as carriage build
ing, for instance, can be made valuable
by this means as substitute for ash,
hickory, etc.

To WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:
We, the undersigned citizens of
Forsyth and adjoining counties,
having each purchased of the gentle
manly Statesmen of the Wrought
Iron Range Co. of St. Louis, Mo.
one of their celebrated Home Com
fort Wrought Iron Cooking Rang
es, take great pleasure in recon-
mending them to our friends and
neighbors. After a thorough test
we pronounce them a success, and
find them to be as good in every
particular as represented by the
Statesmen. They are far more du
rable-bake more uniformly with
less fuel-less danger as to fire
| than any cook stove we have ever
| seen or used. At first we thought
them little high priced, but now
would not take twice the price paid
for them and be without it. Besides
its good baking qualities, it affords
the greatest abundance of hot wat
er, which is a great convenience.
Buy one and you will not regret the
purchase.
Very Respectfully,

A little Boston maiden of @ summers
has a prize King Charles spaniel, for which
a doting aunt paid the neat price Of $500.
The aunt was desirious of entering the

girls parents, she did SO. 1t then became
necessary to break the news to the child
that for four days she would be separated
from her pet At first she refused to be
comforted, answering all arguments and
offers of brides merely by ~extravagant
lamentations; bu at length the inevitable
seemed to assert itself in the corner of her
small brain devoted to philosophy, and
upon the theory that what must be must
be, she became more calm. She was over

vice to her darling upon the proper man.

A CoIored Poetess.

w. A. jackson, a colored man who is
author of the memoirs of Phillis Wheat
ley, the colored poetess who lived and
wrote most of her poems prior to the rev.
dictionary war, left a copy of the book
with THE LEADER Yesterday. The book
is neatly printed and bound, and presents
a very attractive appearance. A hasty
examination of its contents shows that the
author, while possessed of considerable
poetic talent, vas too much given to the
use Of big words, such as in some in
stances destroy their harmony and senti.
ment altogether. In this respect, how
ever, the authoress has simply followed
the old style which is now going out Of
date, which, between the use of great
words and would be profound thoughts.
80 dlstorts a production that before you
have read a dozen lines you begin to
wonder what it is all about and what, if
anything, is its meaning. 1t is some
thing remarkable hat a servant girl who
had little or no opportunity should have
been able to do as well as Phillis Wheat
ley.

An ingenious Buffalo man has invented
a device which he thinks will prevent the
spread of fire through elevator shafts,
His idea is to erect a stand pipe in one
corner of the shaft with branches Of per-
forated pipe of smaller size surrounding
the well at each floor, The water can be
turned into each of these perforated pipes
simultaneously by simply pulling a lever
at a point remote from the elevator, thus
filling the shaft with a shower of spray,
which, he thinks, will check the flames
at that point.-New York Sun.
